Al-Haj Maulvi Mohammed Akbar bin Mohammed Hussein Saifullah

Mulla of Baroda

Mukarram Mulla Mohammed Akbar bin Mohammed Hussein Saifullah saheb of Baroda was a revered teacher and a Qaari of repute.

He was instrumental to the upkeep of scholastic finesse and achievements of Daar ut-Tuluba/ Madrasa-e-Husaamiyah at Baroda, which was started by 47th Dai' Sayyidna Ad-Dai' Ghulam Hussain bin Hazrat Farhat Ali Husami saheb as a full fledged Madrasa and also a boarding school/ day school for Awlaad-e-Sulaimani's.

The patronage of Mukarram Mulla Al-Aamil Gowher Ali Hakim bin Mulla Nooruddin Miyan Khan saheb to this Madrasa was such that none can deny it. However, after Independence since 1947, due to western influence and other factors it fizzled out from its earlier prominence.
